The author begins with the roots of the game describing the unique mental attitude of the Brazilian malandro someone who lives by a code apart from moral judgement and social conformity. This attitude is essential for the true appreciation of capoeira as a rich and wonderful game and for its deceptive fighting strategy in which total command of self and surroundings are required for survival. A history of capoeira's development in Brazil traces it evolution from fighting and street play to a way of life embraced internationally. Finally a practice tutorial takes up where the author's Little Capoeira Book left off. Instruction is given in intermediate and advanced fighting skills with in depth analysis of capoeira matches and nearly one hundred illustrations and photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Warrior Australia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48984500109529,"sku":"9781556434044","price":19.6,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0659\/2688\/9689\/files\/9781556434044.jpg?v=1784617634"},{"product_id":"book-capoeira-the-jogo-de-angolo-from-luanda-to-cyberspace-v2-by-gerard-taylor","title":"Book: Capoeira The Jogo de Angolo from Luanda to Cyberspace V2 by Gerard Taylor","description":"\u003cp\u003ePaperback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThere is some slight colour\/blackening on the spine\/pages - Priced at 50% off.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eCapoeira: The Jogo de Angola from Luanda to Cyberspace Volume Two tells the story of how the fighting art known as capoeira evolved from an illegal activity practiced in Brazil's coastal cities to the popular worldwide phenomenon it is today.
